hey doods,

i still have my 93 teg and since memorial day, i have had no reverse gear. when i took it out of the shop the mechanic said that to get all the gears back he had replaced the front left axle. and a couple of times it has shifted into reverse but about 98% of the time it grinds. we lifted it up and popped the right axle out and while grinding in reverse (god how i wanted him to put it in neutral) the wheels turned slowly but no doing. i took it to ammco and they quoted me 2200 bux to overhaul. i have been driving it without reverse for 4-5 months now and short of selling it i want to solve this problem.
i would love to do this myself and would be willing to go out and buy necissary tools but from rereading my chilton, i fear that my total lack of experiance may cause more harm than good.

funny thing is, it grinds less in neutral. and sometimes when i start it it grinds immediatly in park. probably 1 out of 20 times.

help?
